In this enthalpy of reactions learning exercise, students use a known amount of copper (II) sulphate solution and an excess of zinc powder to calculate the reaction's enthalpy change. Students measure the temperature change throughout the reaction, plot their data, extrapolate the curve back to three minutes after the zinc was added to the solution, and calculate the enthalpy change using the reaction data.
